Looks like these are for their factory in Hungary. They are having trouble finding workers because all the ones who can are migrating West.
If they paid more, they could probably still hire people. Obviously those who left want to work. It's hard to believe that these robots are cheaper than workers in Hungary. I think they're just following other car manufacturers who are doing the same thing.
The money from corpo investors probably helps a lot.
